Lac Son district has made significant progress in promoting gender equality and women's advancement in areas such as politics, economy, labor, health care, and education.

The People's Committee has issued plans to implement a national strategy on gender equality and a programme to prevent gender-based violence.

Women’s participation in government and leadership roles has increased, with women holding key positions across various levels. The district also focuses on reducing school dropout rates, child marriage, and poverty, while promoting cultural and economic development.

Efforts to close the gender gap in employment have been successful, with 50% of female workers now earning wages and a decrease in the number of women working in agriculture. Several women in the district hold leadership positions in cooperatives and businesses.

To combat gender-based violence, the district has intensified legal education and support services for victims. Programs have been implemented to promote women's empowerment in family and community life, reducing gender bias and improving work-life balance for women.

In the coming time, the district aims to further increase female leadership and ensure access to financial and support services for women, particularly those in vulnerable households.
